The fanatical Prohibitionists illustrate
their spirit by the astonishing penalty that
was imposed the other day upon drug
clerk at Wichita, Kan, who pleaded guilty
to selling liquor. The judge sentenced
the offender to seventeen years and four
months imprisonment in the county jail
and fined him $50, 800 in addition, as well
as the costs of the prosecution. The in>
temperance of this punishment is of a
piece with everything that the Pro-
hibitionists undertake. They are simply
monomaniacs and, like other crazy folk,
will brook no opposition. If anything
further had been needed to prove their
lunacy with respect to their hobby, surely
this indicative sentence of violator of
the Prohibition law furnishes the evidence.
Demented they undoubtedly are, and their
insane fury against those who consci-
entiously oppose their theories must spend
itself after while, like fire in straw pile.

The ex-prisoners of war in session at
Chicago last week declared their senti-
ments upon certain matters, interesting to
all soldiers, in no equivocal terms 1t is
these men who feel more keenly than any
others, perhaps, the heartless course of the
administration in the insults offered the
Union soldiers. They suffered more than
any others of the gallant boys in blue, who
fought to preserve this Union, and it is
with no small degree of disgust and indig-
nation, we take it, that they see ex-rebels
passing upon the qualifications of sick and
wounded Union soldiers in their pleas for
pension that they regret the unjust course
of the administration in pension matters
ind preceIve how willingly the President
would have allowed the captured war
trophies to be returned to their former de-
faint faunters, perhaps to be again nm
furled in civil, and maybe in military dis
play. If there eyer was spot where the
administration could go to find hot-bed
tempered to an unusual degree, it was at

tions in Chicago.

For the special edifcation of the Banner
we herewith state that no one connected
with the CHRONICLE claims to be an 'sold
Vet, nor ever applied to the Grand Army
for membership therein. Nor was the
plea of soldier ever advanced to obtain
reduction of personal taxes. Like the
callow hero of the Banner, we never went
te war no, we were never even ten
day. soldier in Philadelphia, and are
therefore perhaps ineligible to serve as a
veteran" secretary of reunion COM
mittee. We have too much solid respect
for old soldiers to ever pose in such an
equlvocal capacity. We leave that to
after-the-war heroes. The CHRONICLE, un-
like the Banner, does not ante-date the
war period and therefore, fortunately fol
its record. it has no need to hide away any
musty files, in order that "old Vets" may
not compare the grotesque gushings of to
day with less charitable screeds of the past

Some Boston creditors of the Mime

Judge Nelson, of the United States dis

their claims against the company. The
court set their argument for 2 O'Clock
Monday. Their case is similar to that
of Porter and Cable against Senator
Sabin. They want an injunction against
the recognized corporation, and object
to the selling of stock at so per cent.
They allege that 100000 is not ac-
counted for in the new company's
books as it should be.

Syllabus-M., the agent of the insur-
ance company, resigned his agency, and,
seeking the appointment of his son in
his place, wrote as an inducement that
the work of the latter would be under
his immediate supervision. Another
agent, through whom this was COM
municated to the company, added that
the buSinetS would run the same as be-
fore. but that he. NJ, desires his son to
learn the business and have some re-
SponsibiIity. and takes this method.
The son having been thereupOn APP
pointed. Held. that the evidence justi-
fed the finding, and that it had still
authority TO act for the company. EYl-
dence in the case considered as justify
ing finding that parol contract of
insurance had been made. Any fact
necessary to an understanding of other
material and relevant facts in a case is
admissible in evidence: e.g., an eX-
pired contract of insurance. in connec-
ton with a subsequent parOl agreement
for the reinsurance of the same prop
erty made with reference To the former
contract. \ transaction being such
that the parties may or may not have
understood it alike as an agreemeE,
the testimony of the parties may be re-
ceived directly as to their understand
ing. The subsequent acts of party
may also be shown by the adverse party
as showing his understanding of the
agreement. The former declarations
of a witness offered by the adverse
party were properly included, they
not being contrary to his testimony.
There being no averment by the de-
fendaht that the contract provided that
fraud in the proof of loss should avoid
the contract, and it not appearing that
the plaintiff consented to litigate that
question. the defendant was not in a
position to avail itself of that defense.
